Title: The Construct Question Thread Post by: Bood_War on April 17, 2011, 05:01:46 PM Just like the GML question thread, but for Construct (though I'm not sure how many Tigers even use it).
To start: Any ideas on dynamic lighting in Construct? It's something I've thought about before, but haven't ever been able to figure out. Title: Re: The Construct Question Thread Post by: Sakar on April 18, 2011, 09:55:37 AM There's a built-in light object in Construct. It works pretty well.
Title: Re: The Construct Question Thread Post by: Hangedman on April 18, 2011, 10:57:12 AM It's really not that functional, as it's really more of a shadowcaster. And that means that all illuminated areas are perfectly bright. All you can do is choose the opacity of the shadow in the unilluminated area. So you can't really have selectively bright areas or faded shading.
Or perhaps it has been changed? Title: Re: The Construct Question Thread Post by: Sakar on April 18, 2011, 11:40:19 AM There are two objects: a light (essentially a semi-transparent radial gradient, though it is customizable in the image editor), and a shadowcaster (which doesn't work very well)
I guess it really depends on what you want the dynamic light to do |
